Rick,

They look great! It would be good to see full-car side and front 3/4 shots too.

How much are the wheels? How much are the tires?

Rick,

Your new wheels look similar to the Brabus Monoblock V made for Mercedes. Take a look:

Brabus does own or part own StarTech, hence the similiar wheels. They are one of my favourite wheels, a picture from the Brabus stand at the '99 Geneva Motorshow

Is the interior clearance no more than an 18", or do you have some new monster-sized brakes on there? Those calipers are almost as close to the rim as my 14" rotors put the big AP 6-piston calipers on the stock 18" rims.

Yeah, how big is that front rotor? And do I see stock rears?

Pricey, but I'd like to see what an upgrade like this would do at the track.

That's actually $11,160 without shipping, mounting, balancing, or the little filler plug.

ouch. That's about a years worth of Viper Days all expenses included...

Re: My wheels are BIGGER than Your\'s

That is the best combo I have seen so far. Congrats! I love the brakes up front, what are the rears, stock? It looks great! I see you were eager to take the pics as soon as the tires were mounted...

Are they individually numbered too?

Hate to be the contrarian (ok, not really) but the sidewall doesn't have enough height, imho -- they sorta look pimped-out.
They need at least another sidewall size up for optimum looks. Nice wheels though.

Is there any air in those tires, or are they glued to the rim? LOL.

Too COOL!
